Answer:

x = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertical opposite angles are formed when two straight lines intersect each other.

Given that AD and CD are two straight lines intersecting at O, the two vertical opposite formed are, ∠AOD and ∠COB. Therefore:

∠AOD = ∠COB (Vertical opposite angles are congruent)

∠AOE = 90° (right angle)

∠DOE = x

∠COF = 30°

∠BOF = 2x

m∠AOE + m∠DOE = m∠AOD (angle addition postulate)

90 + x = ∠AOD (Substitution)

m∠COF + m∠BOF = m∠COB (Angle addition postulate)

30 + 2x = ∠COB

m∠AOD = m∠COB (vertical opposite angles)

90 + x = 30 + 2x (Substitution)

Collect like terms

90 - 30 = 2x - x

60 = x

x = 60

A rectangle has a perimeter of 30 ft. Find a function that models its area A in terms of the length x of one of its sides. What
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the other side of the rectangle be y. The perimeter of the rectangle is expressed as P = 2(x+y)

Given P = 30ft, on substituting P = 30 into the expression;

30 = 2(x+y)

x+y = 15

y = 15-x

Also since the area of the rectangle is xy;

A = xy

Substitute y = 15-x into the area;

A = x(15-x)

A = 15x-x²

The function that models its area A in terms of the length x of one of its sides is A = 15x-x²

The side of length x yields the greatest area when dA/dx = 0

dA/dx = 15-2x

15-2x = 0

-2x = -15

x = -15/-2

x = 7.5 ft

Hence the side length, x that yields the greatest area is 7.5ft.

Since y = 15-x

y = 15-7.5

y = 7.5

Area of the rectangle = 7.5*7.5

Area of the rectangle = 56.25ft²
